Motivacation

I've got calls out to the doctors' offices re my escape with the ER this weekend. I don't know if it is getting better on my left side, or if I'm just getting used to it, but the fingers on my right hand went this morning, so obviously the fun continues.

Made the center panel for the kid's quilt I've been working on, only to discover that it doesn't go (at all!) with the ring of numbers blocks that I spent days appliqueing. Now I'm making four 'center' blocks instead, and am shelving the numbers blocks (and the letters to go with them) for another project for another as-yet-to-be-determined kid. Ah well...

Finally came up with designs for the quilts for my friend's twins that I actually like! I am probably going to need to dye the fabrics for the individualizing bits, and dyeing to a specific color sounds very daunting for a first Procion project! Yikes! Hints would be most welcome!!!! Anyone know where there might be a formula/color chart available on the web???? Yeah, I know - dream on!!!

My swoops and spike piece (the only artsy thing I've even remotely got going atm) has been languishing on the design wall for at least the last month, if not two. The spike represents the problems I've had getting pregnant... I wonder if I don't want to make that block (the next one) for fear of manifesting that block in my current life? Hm. I'm in what is known as the 2ww (two week wait) between ovulation and when one can test for pregnancy. I get to test next Sunday. BTW - no fairsies; I still have ovarian pain on the side of my body where my skin can't feel any but a blessed thing! Narf!

Ah well - off to find pictures of cartoon cows...
